the energy at the table was "The DM Specifically Told You Not To Do This" which made for an uncomfortable table BUT. it's a win for creative collaborative storytelling. (yes it worked, but there was a real chance that it wouldn't and that would've also made for an excellent story pivot)

#the number of times i have craved rebellion in a campaign and didnt bc i the player dislike conflict #so i made the player choice and not the character choice. i do feel like that energy funneled into this kljhgf #yes it worked but there was a real tangible chance that it wouldn't and literally any outcome of that scene would've made excellent story #two campaigns have failed to live up to VM bc they always choose Be Nice Team Player and never do high stakes dumb shit #even the ruidus scene was underwhelming; no one had a crisis of faith no one freaked out #orym killed innocents and his only disapproval was a frown #like i get why we've strayed from alignment but it think it also has led us away from immutable character choices #currently watching tag
